Owner's Policy

Title insurance that protects YOU, the buyer, against title defects for as long as you own the home.

What you should know

The owner's title policy protects your ownership rights. It defends against undisclosed heirs, forgery in the chain of ownership, undisclosed liens or unpaid taxes, and errors in public records. It's a one-time purchase at closing that provides coverage for as long as you or your heirs own the property.
